One of the most welcoming staff I've seen in the Kadawatha food scene. Their rice and curry is great, fried rice is good too and they have a BBQ as well, serving an assortment of meats like: pork, chicken and sausages, paired with a fresh coleslaw and garlic bread. Keep up the good work Team Banana Leaf.

Absolutely loved the food here! We eat a mostly plant based diet so really appreciate the wide variety of vegetables!!!! We had both lunch and dinner here, per person about 230- 250 LKR. Walking distance to SSC villa where we stayed so really liked it here. Leave them a cute message on the wall too! On crowded days dinner will almost be over by 8 pm so hurry up.
